TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates to ophthalmic lenses, and more particularly to designs and/or configurations for ophthalmic lenses, kits and/or series of ophthalmic lenses, and/or methods for correcting, slowing, reducing, and/or controlling the progression of myopia configured for use in conjunction with muscarinic receptor antagonists and/or related compounds.

BACKGROUND

The discussion of the background in this disclosure is included to explain the context of the disclosed embodiments. This is not to be taken as an admission that the material referred to was published, known or part of the common general knowledge at the priority date of the embodiments and claims presented in this disclosure.

Myopia, commonly referred to as shortsightedness, is a disorder of the eye that results in distant objects being focused in front of the retina. Accordingly, the image on the retina is not in focus and results in blurred vision. Optical correction strategies for myopia use ophthalmic lenses to shift the image plane to the retina and thereby provide clear vision. However, these strategies may not slow eye growth and therefore, myopia continues to progress. Used topically, Atropine, a muscarinic receptor antagonist, has demonstrated a level of efficacy in slowing myopia progression. Other myopia control strategies include progressive addition lenses, executive bifocal spectacles, dual focus contact lenses, spectacles with multiple segments, spectacle lenses with scattering features, and orthokeratology.

Although the mechanism of action is still unknown, varying concentrations of Atropine eye drops (0.01% to 1.0%) have been used and there is a concentration dependent response e.g., the higher the concentration, the greater the efficacy. However, the increased side-effects associated with higher doses of Atropine including near blur, photophobia and risk of ultraviolet exposure leading to potential crystalline lens and retinal changes often deter parents and/or caretakers from widely adopting higher concentrations for treatment in the young and therefore limits efficacy. Furthermore, although Atropine may slow the progression of myopia, the efficacy may vary between individuals with some individuals receiving benefit and others not as much.

In addition, due to the loss of accommodative amplitude and resultant near blur induced by certain concentrations of Atropine, they require a concomitant use of an optical aid with near add (relatively more plus power compared to distance power) for near tasks. Another side-effect from Atropine use is photophobia. Research found that myopic children aged 8-10 years receiving atropine 0.5%, 0.1%, and 0.01% request photochromic progressive lenses 70%, 61%, and 6% of the time respectively.

Accordingly, there is a need to provide an ophthalmic lens that can be used in conjunction with a pharmaceutical agent, such as Atropine (or a muscarinic receptor antagonist, or a related compound more generally) that not only corrects the refractive error of the eye, but aids in further slowing the progression of myopia and/or reduces/minimizes visual disturbance(s). The embodiments described herein may solve or address one or more of these and/or other problems disclosed herein. The present disclosure is also directed to pointing out one or more advantages to using exemplary ophthalmic lenses and methods described herein.

FIG. 1A illustrates a schematic plot of pupil diameters resulting from use of Atropine, a widely used muscarinic receptor antagonist and a pharmaceutical agent for myopia therapy. The average pupil diameter as a function of use of Atropine therapy is provided and shows an increase in photopic pupillary diameter with increasing concentration of Atropine. Considering FIG. 1A, it is observed that use of 0.01% Atropine which to date is the lowest concentration used for treatment of myopia in individuals, increases the photopic pupillary diameter by approximately 1 mm. Increasing the concentration to anywhere from 0.025% to 0.1% Atropine, increases the photopic pupil size from about 2 mm to about 3 mm. With the highest concentration of 0.5% Atropine, the increase in photopic pupil size was largest and at about 3 mm. An increase in pupil size increases aberrations of the eye. Although all types of aberrations increased significantly with increasing pupil size, an increase in certain higher order aberrations such as spherical aberrations may be more pronounced. FIG. 1B illustrates the increase in higher order aberrations from 3^(rd) to 6^(th) order as determined by aberrometry for the myopic eye of an individual who has a distance refractive error of approximately −2.00 D. It is observed that there is a significant increase in aberrations with a larger pupil. An increase in the pupil size may result in a functional decrement in visual performance and one or more unwanted effects such as poorer visual performance, reduced contrast, blurred vision, increased glare and increased photophobia (sensitivity to light). In addition, use of muscarinic receptors antagonists in myopic individuals may also result in reduced or blurred vision at near distances due to reduction in the accommodative amplitude and/or may alter binocular vision status or may result in accommodative dysfunction. To reduce or lower the risk of the aforementioned side-effects associated with muscarinic antagonist therapy, it may be desirable to use lower concentrations of a pharmaceutical agent (e.g., Atropine). However, lower concentrations may not provide sufficient myopia control efficacy. Additionally, use of pharmaceutical agents that require long term topical or systemic applications at regular and frequent intervals may likely be associated with non-compliance and non-adherence to medication regimens leading to reduced myopia control efficacy. Thus, in addition to use of muscarinic antagonists for myopia control there is a need to provide, sustain, maintain and/or improve efficacy with other avenues. In this regard, there is some evidence that there may be an improved efficacy with combination treatments involving ophthalmic lenses and muscarinic antagonists rather than ophthalmic lenses alone or anti-muscarinic treatments alone. Furthermore, although both muscarinic receptor antagonists and other pharmaceutical agents such as adenosine receptor antagonists may be prescribed for slowing myopia, there is still a need to provide a concurrent/concomitant ophthalmic device such as a spectacle or a contact lens to correct the myopia induced blurred vision at distance. Thus, there is a need to provide an improved ophthalmic lens that is configured to be used in conjunction with one or more pharmaceutical agents (e.g., Atropine) for slowing myopia.

FIG. 2A is a schematic of an embodiment of an ophthalmic lens 201, e.g., a spectacle lens for use in conjunction with a pharmaceutical agent for myopia. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lens may be a spectacle lens that comprises a base lens with a front surface and a back surface. The ophthalmic lens may have one or more myopia control elements 204 that may be present on one and/or both front and back surfaces, in between the surfaces and/or may be incorporated in the base lens 201 to control, arrest, retard and/or slow myopia. The lens may have one or more first viewing regions (202 a, 202 b, 202 c) wherein, at least part of the viewing regions have a power profile that substantially corrects for the refractive error of the eye for distance. At least one of the first viewing regions 202 a is further designed to substantially or significantly minimize, reduce and/or eliminate vision disturbances. The first viewing regions 202 a may be substantially aligned with the pupillary axis or the visual axis of the eye when the eye is viewing targets at one or more of far distances. Furthermore, at least one or more dimensions of one of the first viewing regions 202 a, such as the size (e.g., length/width), shape and/or position/location may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions 202 a, may incorporate a power profile control, reduce or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, the lens may have one or more second viewing regions (203 a, 203 b). At least one of the second viewing regions 203 a may be placed about inferiorly to the first viewing region 202 a and has a dioptric power profile that is relatively more positive compared to the dioptric power of the first viewing region 202 a to enable substantially normal vision for near distances. The dimensions (e.g., size) and/or the relatively more positive power of at least one or more of the second viewing region 203 a and 203 b may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to be used in conjunction with the ophthalmic lens. In some embodiments at least one of the second viewing regions 203 a and 203 b, may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, the dimensions of the one or more first viewing regions 202 a and at least one of the second viewing regions 203 a may be based upon the pupillary diameter of the eye resulting from the use of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) and additionally, the dioptric power profile that results in a relatively more positive power of the at least one of the second viewing regions 203 a may be based, at least in part, on the amplitude of accommodation of an eye of an individual resulting from the use of a particular concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, the dimension(s), arrangement, dioptric power, type and/or fill factor of the one or more myopia control elements 204 to slow myopia may be configured based, at least in part, on the concentration of the Atropine or Atropine related compounds in use. In some embodiments, the dimension(s), dioptric power, arrangement, type and/or fill factor of the one or more myopia control elements 204 to slow myopia may be configured based, at least in part, on the concentration of the Atropine or Atropine related compounds in use and/or the rate of progression of myopia. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lens 201 may further comprise one or more of a light absorbing filter, light absorbing element, photochromic filter, photo mask and/or a phase shift mask to further reduce, minimize and/or eliminate visual disturbance for the eye and configured based, at least in part, on the concentration of the Atropine or Atropine related compounds in use.

FIG. 2B is a schematic of an embodiment of an ophthalmic lens 211, e.g., a contact lens for use in conjunction with a pharmaceutical agent for myopia. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lens may be a contact lens that comprises a base lens with a front surface, a back surface, an optical zone 211 a and a peripheral zone 211 b. The ophthalmic lens may have one or more myopia control elements 214 that may be positioned on the base lens 211 to control, arrest, retard and/or slow myopia. The lens may have one or more first viewing regions (212 a, 212 b, 212 c) wherein, at least part of the viewing regions have a power profile that substantially corrects for the refractive error of the eye for distance. At least one of the first viewing regions 212 a may have one or more features, such as size designed to minimize, reduce and/or eliminate vision disturbances and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions 212 a, may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). The first viewing regions 212 a may be substantially aligned with the pupillary axis or the visual axis of the eye when viewing targets at one or more of far distances. In some embodiments, the lens may have one or more second viewing regions (213). The one or more second viewing regions 213 may be placed about concentric-co-axial to the first viewing region 212 a and may have a dioptric power profile that is relatively more positive compared to the dioptric power of the first viewing region 212 a to enable substantially normal vision for near and/or intermediate distances. The dimensions (e.g., size) and/or the relatively more positive power of at least one or more of the second viewing regions 213 may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to be used in conjunction with the ophthalmic lens. In some embodiments at least one of the second viewing regions 213, may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, the location and dimensions of the one or more first viewing regions 212 a and the second viewing region 213 may be based upon the pupillary diameter of the eye resulting from the use of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) and the dioptric power profile that results in a relatively more positive power of the second viewing region 213 may be based, at least in part, on amplitude of accommodation of an eye of an individual resulting from use of a particular concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, the dimension(s), arrangement, dioptric power, location, type and/or fill factor of the one or more myopia control elements 214 to slow myopia may be configured based, at least in part, on the concentration of the Atropine or Atropine related compounds in use. In some embodiments, the dimension(s), dioptric power, arrangement, location, type and/or fill factor of the one or more myopia control elements 214 to slow myopia may be configured based, at least in part, on the concentration of the Atropine or Atropine related compounds in use and/or the rate of progression of myopia. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lens 201 may further comprise one or more of a light absorbing filter, light absorbing element, photochromic filter, photo mask and/or a phase shift mask to further reduce, minimize and/or eliminate visual disturbance for the eye and configured based, at least in part, on the concentration of the Atropine or Atropine related compounds in use.

FIG. 3 illustrates the estimated increase in pupil diameter (derived from pupil sizes provided in FIG. 1 ) with various concentrations of Atropine and the 95%, 97% and 99% confidence intervals for each of these concentrations. The estimated increase in pupil diameter is provided by the equation “Estimated increase in pupil diameter=6.924+0.6266*LN (Concentration of Atropine %/100)” wherein LN is the natural log function. The selection of the dimension(s) such as size and/or shape, and incorporation of aberration control for at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the ophthalmic lens may be derived based on the estimated change in pupil diameter with a particular concentration of Atropine or Atropine related compound. This is further illustrated in FIG. 4 . In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lens may be a spectacle lens. In some embodiments, the dimension of at least one (412 a) of the one or more first viewing regions (412 a, 412 b) of the spectacle lens 411 of FIG. 4 may be a range chosen based on the 95% interval of the equation “Distance(first) viewing region size for normal non-atropine wearer+6.924+0.6266*LN (Concentration of Atropine %/100)” wherein LN is the natural log function. If the diameter of the at least one of the first viewing regions 402 a of the spectacle lens 401 was 9.0 mm for a user without Atropine therapy, the diameter of the at least one of the first viewing regions 412 a of the spectacle lens 411 to be used in conjunction with 0.01% Atropine (FIG. 4A) may vary from about 9.8 mm to about 10.5 mm. In some embodiments, the dimension of at least one of the first viewing regions may be a range chosen based on the 99% confidence interval of the equation “Distance(first) viewing region size for normal non-atropine wearer+6.924+0.6266*LN (Concentration of Atropine %/100)” wherein LN is the natural log function. Therefore, as illustrated in FIG. 4 , if the diameter of at least one of the first viewing regions 402 a of the spectacle lens 401 for a user without Atropine therapy was 9.0 mm, the diameter of at least one of the first viewing regions 412 a of the spectacle lens 411 to be used in conjunction with 0.01% Atropine (FIG. 4A) may vary from about 9.7 mm to about 10.6 mm. Similarly, if the diameter of the at least one of the first viewing region 402 a of the spectacle lens 401 was 9.0 mm for a user without Atropine therapy, the diameter of the first (e.g., distance) viewing region 422 a in conjunction with 0.05% Atropine (FIG. 4B) may vary from about 11.0 to about 11.4 mm (95% confidence interval) or about 10.9 mm to 11.9 mm (99% confidence interval). Similarly, if the diameter of at least one of the first viewing regions 402 a of the spectacle lens 401 was 9.0 mm for a user without Atropine therapy, the diameter of the at least one of the first viewing regions 432 a in conjunction with 0.5% Atropine (FIG. 4C) may vary from about 12.2 to about 13.0 mm (95% confidence interval) or about 12.1 mm to 13.1 mm (99% confidence interval). In some embodiments, the dimension of at least one (412 a) of the one or more first viewing regions (412 a, 412 b) of the spectacle lens 411 of FIG. 4 may be selected based the size of the first viewing region for a normal non-atropine wearer combined with a percentage value of the estimated pupillary diameter as determined using the equation “Estimated increase in pupil diameter=6.924+0.6266*LN (Concentration of Atropine %/100)”.)”. In some embodiments, the size of the first viewing region for a normal non-atropine wearer combined with about 20% of the estimated increase in pupil diameter may be considered to select the dimension of at least one of the first viewing regions (412 a of lens 411). In other embodiments, a percentage value of the estimated pupil diameter that is selected may be about 25%, about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 55%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 85%, about 90%, about 15% to about 50%, about 20% to about 60% or about 25% to about 75%. In some embodiments if the diameter of at least one of the first viewing region 402 a of the spectacle lens 401 was 9.0 mm for a user without Atropine, then in some embodiments, the diameter of at least one of the first viewing regions 412 a of the spectacle lens 411 to be used in conjunction with 0.01% Atropine (FIG. 4A) is based on an about 20% to 50% increase in the estimated pupil size, it may vary from about 9.23 mm to about 9.58 mm.

In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the spectacle lens for a user with Atropine therapy may vary from about 4 mm to about 11 mm. In some embodiments, the shape of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the spectacle lens for a user with Atropine therapy may be circular. In some embodiments, at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the spectacle lens for a user with Atropine therapy may be non-circular and may be based on the direction of gaze of the wearer. For example, in certain embodiments, at least one of the one or more first viewing regions may be horizontally oval (442 a in FIG. 4D). In such situations, the shorter of the two lengths may be chosen to be at least the length based on the concentration of Atropine as described above and the remainder of the two lengths, may be determined based on the horizontal eye movements of the user and/or derived from population averages of horizontal eye movements. For example, if the eye movements span across 12 mm in the horizontal meridian but only 9 mm in the vertical meridian, then if the diameter of at least one of the first viewing regions 442 a of the ophthalmic lens 441 was 9 mm for a user without Atropine therapy, the vertical length of the at least one of the first viewing regions 442 a in conjunction with 0.5% atropine (FIG. 4D), may vary from about 12.2 mm to about 13.1 mm. In some embodiments, it may be at least 12.2 mm. In some embodiments, it may be at least 13.1 mm. In some embodiments, based on population averages of eye movements and the concentration of muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound), the size of one of one or more first viewing regions of lenses 411 to 441 may be in the range of about 3 mm to about 20 mm, or 5 mm to 15 mm, or 8 mm to 12 mm. In some embodiments, the size of one of one or more first viewing regions may range from about 4 mm, about 5 mm, about 6 mm, about 7 mm, about 8 mm, about 9 mm, about 10 mm, about 11 mm, about 12 mm, about 13 mm, about 14 mm, about 15 mm, about 16 mm, about 17 mms, about 18 mms and about 19 mm. In some embodiments, one of the lengths of one of one or more first viewing regions may range from about 4 mm to about 15 mm. In some embodiments, one of the lengths of one of one or more first viewing regions may range from about 8 mm to about 11 mm. In some embodiments, the shape of one of the first viewing regions that is based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) may be circular, non-circular, elliptical, oval, square, hexagonal or any other suitable shape and a combination thereof, and when in use, may be positioned symmetrically around one or more axes of the eye (visual axis, pupillary axis, optical axes) or may be positioned asymmetrically around one or more axes of the eyes.

In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions (412 a, 422 a, 432 a, 442 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of a third order aberration, fourth order aberration, fifth order aberration, sixth higher order aberration, other higher order aberrations or a combination of one or more thereof resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions (412 a, 422 a, 432 a, 442 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of third order aberrations. In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions (412 a, 422 a, 432 a, 442 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of fourth order aberrations. In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions (412 a, 422 a, 432 a, 442 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of coma, primary spherical aberration, secondary spherical aberration and/or a combination thereof. In some embodiments the control, reduction, minimization of one or more of the higher order aberrations may be derived from a surface curvature generated by a conic section, or utilizing other complex surfaces incorporating one or more of Zernicke polynomials, superconics or a combination thereof. Considering the −2.00 D myope of example of FIG. 1A, the effective increase of the spherical aberration of the combined spectacle lens and eye system due to an increase in pupillary diameter from about 3 mm to about 6 mm with the use of Atropine was determined to be about +0.50 D. The eye of the myope of FIG. 1A may be managed with one of the ophthalmic lens 411, 421 431 illustrated in FIG. 4 . The ophthalmic lens of FIG. 4 (411, 421, 431) has at least one first viewing region (412 a, 422 a, 432 a) with a first power profile to correct the distance refractive error and the first power profile may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent in use. The first power profile selected to correct for the increased spherical aberration of +0.50 D from the combined eye and optical system due to the increased pupillary diameter may be derived from a surface curvature generated by a conic section, as follows;

the z-coordinate of the surface s given by:

$z = \frac{{cr}^{2}}{1 + \sqrt{1 - {\left( {1 + k} \right)c^{2}r^{2}}}}$

where c is the curvature (the reciprocal of the radius), r is the radial coordinate in lens units and k is the conic constant. In other embodiments the control, reduction, minimization of one or more of the higher order aberrations may be derived from a surface curvature generated by a conic section, or utilizing other complex surfaces incorporating one or more of Zernicke polynomials, superconics or a combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lens may be a contact lens. The lens may have one or more first viewing regions (502 a, 502 b of lens 501 as illustrated in FIG. 5 ) with a dioptric focal power that corrects for the refractive error of the eye for distance. The selection of one or more dimensions such as the size, shape and/or incorporation of aberration control of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the contact lens may be derived based on the estimated change in pupil diameter with a particular concentration of Atropine or Atropine related compound. In some embodiments, the dimension (e.g., size) of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions located centrally 502 may be a range chosen based on the 95% interval of the equation “(6.924+0.6266*LN (Concentration of Atropine %/100))”. If the diameter of one of the first viewing regions 502 a of the contact lens 501 was 2.0 mm for a user without Atropine therapy, the diameter of the first viewing regions 512 a of the contact lens 511 used in conjunction with 0.01% Atropine (FIG. 5 a ) and based on 95% confidence interval may vary from about 2.8 mm to about 3.5 mm. In some embodiments, the diameter of the first viewing regions 512 a may vary from about 2.2 mm to about 4.0 mm (or as much as 10 mm to 11 mm when the non-atropine first viewing region is between 6 mm to about 8 mm). Similarly, when used in conjunction with 0.05% atropine, the diameter of the first viewing region 522 a of contact lens 521 may vary from about 4.0 mm to about 4.4 mm and when used in conjunction with 0.5% atropine may vary from about 5.2 mm to about 6.0 mm (first viewing zone 532 a of contact lens 531). Similarly, if the diameter of one of the first viewing regions 502 a of the contact lens 501 was 2.0 mm for a user without Atropine therapy, the diameter of the first viewing regions 512 a of the contact lens 511 used in conjunction with 0.01% Atropine (FIG. 5 a ) and based on 99% confidence interval may vary from about 2.7 mm to about 3.6 mm. Similarly, when used in conjunction with 0.05% atropine, the diameter of the first viewing region 522 a of contact lens 521 may vary from about 3.9 mm to about 4.9 mm and when used in conjunction with 0.5% atropine may vary from about 5.1 mm to about 6.1 mm (first viewing zone 532 a of contact lens 531).

In some embodiments, the dimension of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions (512 a, 512 b) of the contact lens 511 of FIG. 5 may be selected based on the size of the first viewing region for a normal non-atropine wearer combined with a percentage value of the estimated pupillary diameter as determined using the equation “Estimated increase in pupil diameter=6.924+0.6266*LN (Concentration of Atropine %/100)”.)” wherein LN is the natural log function. In some embodiments, about 10% to 20% of the estimated increase in pupil diameter may be considered to select the dimension of at least one of the first viewing regions (512 a of lens 511). In other embodiments, a percentage value of the estimated pupil diameter that is selected may be about 15%, about 20%, 25%, about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 55%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 85%, about 90%, about 15% to about 50%, about 20% to about 60% or about 25% to about 75%. In some embodiments if the diameter of at least one of the first viewing region 502 a of the contact lens 501 was 2.0 mm for a user without Atropine, then in some embodiments, the diameter of at least one of the first viewing regions 512 a of the contact lens 511 to be used in conjunction with 0.01% Atropine (FIG. 5A) is based on an about 20% to 50% increase in the estimated pupil size, it may vary from about 2.23 mm to about 2.58 mm.

In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions (512 a, 522 a, 532 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce or minimize one or more of a third order aberration, fourth order aberration, fifth order aberration, sixth higher order aberration, other higher order aberrations or a combination thereof resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions (512 a, 522 a, 532 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce or minimize one or more of a third order aberration. In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions ((512 a, 522 a, 532 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce or minimize one or more of a fourth order aberration. In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions (512 a, 522 a, 532 a) may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce or minimize one or more of coma, primary spherical aberration, secondary spherical aberration and/or a combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the shape of one of the first viewing regions that is based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) may be circular, non-circular, elliptical, oval, hexagonal or any other suitable shape and combinations of one or more thereof and when in use, may be positioned symmetrically around one or more axes of the eye (e.g., visual axis, pupillary axis, optical axes) or may be positioned asymmetrically around one or more axes of the eyes.

In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the spectacle lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds may be about 4% to about 95% larger (e.g., about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, or 95% larger) compared to the size of the corresponding at least one of the one or more first viewing regions without the use of atropine. In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the spectacle lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds in concentrations<0.05% may be about 4% to about 60% larger (e.g., about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, or 60% larger) compared to the size of the corresponding at least one of the one or more first viewing regions without the use of atropine. In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the spectacle lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds in concentrations=0.05% may be about 20% to about 70% larger (e.g., about 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, or 70% larger) compared to the size of the corresponding at least one of the one or more first viewing regions without the use of atropine. In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the spectacle lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds in concentrations>0.05% may be about 20% to about 95% larger (e.g., about 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, or 95% larger) compared to the size of corresponding one of the first viewing regions without the use of atropine.

In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the contact lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds may be about 25% to about 400% larger (e.g., about 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 200%, 225%, 250%, 275%, 300%, 325%, 350%, 375%, or 400% larger) compared to the size of the corresponding at least one of the one or more first viewing regions without the use of atropine. In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the contact lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds in concentrations<0.05% may be about 25% to about 80% larger (e.g., about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 70%, 80% or about 60% larger or about 70% larger) compared to the size of the corresponding at least one of the one or more first viewing regions without the use of atropine. In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the contact lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds in concentrations=0.05% may be about 80% to about 150% larger (e.g., about 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 100%, 105%, 110%, 115%, 120%, 125%, 130%, 135%, 140%, 145% or 150% larger) compared to the size of the corresponding at least one of the one or more first viewing regions without the use of atropine. In some embodiments, the size of at least one of the one or more first viewing regions of the contact lens to be used in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds in concentrations>0.05% may be about 100% to about 200% larger (e.g., about 100%, 110%, 120%, 130%, 140%, 150%, 160%, 170%, 180%, 190%, 200% larger) compared to the size of corresponding one of the first viewing regions without the use of atropine.

FIG. 6 illustrates the decline in amplitude of accommodation with increasing concentrations of Atropine in children aged 6-12 years; concentrations greater than 0.1% Atropine reduce the amplitude of accommodation by more than half. As illustrated in FIG. 7A to 7C, based on the concentration of the Atropine or Atropine related compounds in use, an ophthalmic lens may be selected to provide a relatively more positive power (also referred to as “add power”) in one or more of the second viewing regions of the ophthalmic lens compared to the one or more first viewing regions. FIG. 7A illustrates a spectacle lens 701 with one or more first viewing regions 702 a and 702 b. When used in conjunction with Atropine or Atropine related compound concentrations of ≤0.01%, the spectacle lens has a second viewing region 703 a positioned inferiorly relative to first viewing region 702 a and has more positive power relative to 702 a of about ≤+1.00 D. In some embodiments, the relatively more positive power in one or more of the second viewing regions of a spectacle lens that may be used in conjunction with Atropine or Atropine related compound concentrations of ≤0.01% may be about ≤+0.75 D. In some embodiments, the relatively more positive power in one or more of the second viewing regions of a spectacle lens that may be used in conjunction with Atropine or Atropine related compound concentrations of ≤0.01% may be about ≤+0.50 D. In some embodiments, for use in conjunction with Atropine concentrations ranging from >0.01% to 0.1%, the relatively more positive power (or add power) in the second viewing regions 713 a of the ophthalmic lens 711 may be about ≥+1.00 D to ≤+2.00 D. In some embodiments, for use in conjunction with Atropine concentrations ranging from >0.01% to 0.1%, the relatively more positive power (or add power) in one or more of the second viewing regions may be about ≥+1.25 D to ≤+2.00 D or ≥+1.25 D to ≤+2.50 D. In some embodiments, for use in conjunction with Atropine concentrations ranging from >0.01% to 0.1%, the relatively more positive power (or add power) in one or more of the second viewing regions may be about ≥+1.50 D to ≤+2.00 D. In some embodiments, for use in conjunction with Atropine concentrations greater than 0.1%, as illustrated in FIG. 7C, the relatively more positive power (or add power) in one or more of the second viewing regions 723 a of the ophthalmic lens 721 may be about ≥+1.50 D or higher. In some embodiments, for use in conjunction with Atropine concentrations greater than 0.1%, the relatively more positive power (or add power) in one of the second viewing regions may be about ≥+2.00 D, ≥+2.50 D, or higher, may be about ≥+2.00 D to about ≤+3.50 D, maybe about ≥+1.50 D to about ≤+5.00 D.

In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 8 , the ophthalmic lens may comprise one or more first viewing regions (802 a and 802 b in lens 801; 812 a and 812 b in lens 811 and 822 a and 822 b in lens 821), one or more myopia control elements (804 a and 804 b in lens 801; 814 a and 814 b in lens 811 and 824 a and 824 b in lens 821) and one or more second viewing regions (803 a in lens 801; 813 a and 813 b in lens 811 and 823 a in lens 821). The size of at least one of the one or more second viewing regions may be configured at least in part based on the concentration of Atropine or Atropine related compounds. In some embodiments, when used in conjunction with low concentrations of atropine (0.01% or lower), the size of at least one or more of the second viewing regions (803 a) may be smaller compared to the size of at least one or more of the second viewing regions used in conjunction with moderate to high concentrations of atropine (>0.01% atropine), as illustrated in FIGS. 8B and 8C by 813 a (one of the second viewing regions occupies a larger portion inferiorly) or 823 a (the second viewing regions is across substantially across a large portion inferiorly of the lens). In some embodiments, at least one of the second viewing regions may be placed relative to the direction of the primary gaze (or gaze adopted for distance viewing) of the wearer to minimize vision disturbances during intermediate and/or near tasks. As illustrated in FIG. 8A, the second viewing region (803 a) is off-set, in an anti-clockwise direction to coincide with the shift in the primary gaze from straight ahead position to a nasal direction for the right eye of an user during near viewing (in some embodiments, the second viewing region (803 a) may be off-set, in a clockwise direction to coincide with the shift in the primary gaze in the temporal direction for the right eye of an user during near viewing). In some embodiments, the relatively more positive power in at least one or more of the second viewing regions may be uniformly distributed, as illustrated in region 823 a of lens 821 whereas in some embodiments, the power distribution across one or more second viewing regions may have a gradient power, as illustrated in region 803 a of lens 801 where the power increases gradually towards the lower region of 803 a. In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIGS. 8A and 8B, one of the first viewing regions i.e. 802 a of lens 801 and 812 a of lens 811 may comprise a dioptric power profile that is relatively more positive in certain areas of the region. Such a lens of FIGS. 8A and 8B may be useful for an individual in an environment that may be limited to near distances, for example children working on computers, or individuals operating in mostly near distance ranges such as on benchtops, laboratories or desk based. Furthermore, as illustrated in FIG. 8A to 8C, in some embodiments, one or more of myopia control elements may be incorporated in at least one or more of the first viewing regions and one or more second viewing regions. In other embodiments, one or more of the second viewing regions may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter and may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound).

Many variations of the type, size, arrangement, fill factor and magnitude/strength of the one or more myopia control elements that maybe possible. The below are but a few examples of the types of configurations and fill factors that may be possible. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be micro lenses, may be meta lenses or may be a simple variation of the geometric and optical properties of the lens/lens surfaces to induce a refractive power change. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be one or more of refractive, diffractive, contrast modulating, phase-modulating, meta-surfaces, light scattering, light-deviating, amplitude modulating, aberrated, holographic, light-diffusing elements, or a combination of one or more elements thereof. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be refractive elements designed to impose myopic defocus, hyperopic defocus, create an extended depth of focus, create multifocality or a combination thereof.

FIG. 9 is a schematic of a spectacle lens 901 used in conjunction with muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to slow myopia progression. As illustrated in FIG. 9 , the lens comprises a plurality of first viewing regions 902 a and 902 b with at least one feature of 902 a selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. The lens further comprises a second viewing region 903 and the myopia control elements 904 may be positioned across one or more first viewing regions and the second viewing region. The myopia control elements 904 may be refractive 904 a, diffractive 904 b, scatter 904 c, meta lenses 904 d, phase step 904 e, other myopia control elements, and/or may feature any combination of one or more myopia control elements thereof (FIG. 9B). In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be discrete elements, continuous elements, or a combination. In some embodiments, the discrete myopia control elements may be incorporated as annular ring-shaped elements, part annular ring, arc shaped elements, small circular elements, prismatic elements, or as elements of any other suitable shape and/or any combination of one or more thereof. In some embodiments, the one or more discrete myopia control elements may be positioned apart from the other myopia control elements. In some embodiments, the one or more discrete myopia control elements may be positioned in contact with or conjoined with or fused with one or more of other myopia control elements or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the refractive elements may be shaped as a circular element, ring, arc, spiral, triangular or any other shape or a combination thereof or as a part-continuous, substantially continuous refractive power profile that may be monotonic, may be non-monotonic, may be periodic, maybe aperiodic or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the refractive myopia control elements may be designed to provide no defocus, hyperopic defocus, myopic defocus, extended depth of focus, aberrations or a combination thereof compared to refractive power profile in one or more first viewing regions designed to correct for the distance refractive error of the eye. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be incorporated as a partially continuous, substantially continuous or continuous change in power profile that may be monotonic, may be non-monotonic, may be periodic, maybe aperiodic or a combination thereof. In FIG. 9C, the ophthalmic lens incorporates a myopia control feature in one of the first viewing regions 902 b; the power profile increases in relatively more positive power from the boundary of 902 a towards the periphery of the ophthalmic lens. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be arranged in a random or a non-random arrangement/pattern.

In some embodiments, when the arrangement is non-random, they may be placed in a hexagonal, concentric individual, squared, or annular pattern as illustrated in FIG. 10 a to 10 g or may be any other suitable arrangement or combinations of one or more thereof. In some embodiments, when the arrangement is random, they may be placed in an asymmetrical pattern (FIG. 10 g ) or in a symmetrical manner (FIG. 10 f ). In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be incorporated across one or more of the first viewing regions, across one or more of the second viewing regions or across both regions. In some embodiments, the one or myopia control elements may be positioned across the front surface, the back surface or both the surfaces. In certain embodiments, the one or more myopia control elements may be present across the whole of one or both the surfaces or across part of one or both surfaces or in between the surfaces. In some embodiments, the one or more myopia control elements may be present on about 90% or more of the lens surface, about 85% of lens surface, about 80% of lens surface, about 75% of lens surface, about 70% of lens surface, about 65% of the lens surface, about 60% of lens surface, about 55% of lens surface, about 50% of lens surface, about 45% of lens surface, about 40% of the lens surface, about 35% of the lens surface, about 30% of the lens surface, about 25% of the lens surface, about 20% of the lens surface, about 15% of the lens surface and about 10% of the lens surface. In some embodiments, the one or more myopia control elements may be present in a range varying from about 20% to about 60% (e.g., about 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, or 60%). In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may only be incorporated in regions other than one or more of the first viewing regions that may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may only be incorporated in regions other than one or more of the first and one or more of the second viewing regions that may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound).

FIG. 11 is an illustration of a spectacle lens used in conjunction with muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to slow myopia progression whilst minimizing, reducing and/or eliminating vision disturbances. In FIG. 11 , the dimensions of at least one of the first viewing regions 1102 a and at least one of the second viewing regions 1103 a are sized based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions 1102 a and/or at least one of the second viewing regions 1103 a may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter. Additionally, the dioptric power, i.e., the relatively more positive power of the second viewing region 1103 a compared to the first viewing region 1102 a is based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. Furthermore, the myopia control elements 1104 are present across the entire lens surface including the one or more first viewing regions (1104 a, 1104 b) and the second viewing region (1104 c). In the particular example as illustrated in FIG. 11 , the size of the myopia control elements in one of the one or more first viewing regions 1104 a is sized smaller in comparison to the myopia control elements across one or more of the other viewing regions of the lens (1104 b and 1104 c) to reduce and/or minimize visual disturbances when the individual is looking at far distances. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements in one of the one or more first viewing regions 1104 a may be sized smaller in comparison to the myopia control elements across one or more of the other viewing regions of the lens (1104 b and 1104 c) and may be present only in one or more regions of 1102 a to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter. Furthermore, in this example, the myopia control elements present across the second viewing region 1104 c may be sized larger in comparison to the myopia control elements 1104 a in one of the one or more first viewing regions 1102 a to ensure that adequate myopia control is provided during near tasks, as excessive near tasks are considered to exacerbate myopia. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements may be one or more of discrete myopia control elements, continuous myopia control elements or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the strength of the myopia control elements across the second viewing region 1103 a may be higher compared to the strength of the myopia control elements across one or more of the distance viewing regions 1102 a or 1102 b.

In some embodiments, the fill factor of the myopia control elements may vary between the various regions to minimize visual disturbance with the various concentrations of muscarinic receptor antagonist in use and/or maximize myopia control efficacy in conjunction with the muscarinic receptor antagonist in use. In both FIGS. 12A and 12B, one of the first viewing regions 1202 a and 1212 a are devoid (or substantially devoid) of myopia control elements. Considering another of the first viewing regions 1202 b of FIG. 12A, the fill ratio of the myopia control elements (1204 a) across this first viewing region 1202 b may be less than the fill ratio of the myopia control elements 1204 b across the one of the second near viewing regions 1203 and is illustrated in the section 1205 c. In FIG. 12B, the fill ratio of the myopia control elements (1214 b) across one of the second viewing regions 1213 is less than the fill ratio of myopia control elements 1214 a across one of the first viewing regions 1212 b, as illustrated in section 1215 c. A lesser or greater fill ratio may be achieved based on the size of the myopia control element as illustrated in FIG. 12 or the number of elements e.g., per sq·mm as illustrated in FIG. 13 . A lesser fill ratio of myopia control elements in one or more of the first viewing regions and/or one or more of the second viewing regions may be desirable to minimize visual disturbances e.g., with higher concentrations of muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) whereas a higher fill ratio of myopia control elements in one or more of the first and/or one or more of the second viewing regions may be desirable to aid myopia control with lower concentrations of muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds).

FIG. 14 is a schematic of a series of ophthalmic lenses, spectacle lenses used in conjunction with muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) to slow myopia progression whilst minimizing, reducing and/or eliminating vision disturbances. In FIG. 14 , the ophthalmic lenses 1401, 1411 and 1421 are designed to be used in conjunction with low, moderate, and high concentrations of atropine. The dimensions of one of the first viewing regions 1402 a, 1412 a and 1422 a of ophthalmic lenses 1401, 1411 and 1421 are sized based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions 1402 a, 1412 a and 1422 a may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter. The shape of one of the first viewing regions may be non-circular taking into consideration the requirements of the user. In the ophthalmic lens of FIG. 14A, the myopia control elements 1404 are present across the entire lens surface across one of the first viewing regions 1402 b and excluding the first viewing region 1402 a. The myopia control elements have relatively more positive power (relatively more plus compared to the power in one or more of the first viewing regions 1402 a or 1402 b) to impose myopic defocus. Since there is accommodative lag for near distances it is preferable to increase the myopic defocus whilst viewing near distances compared to far distances. Thus, to increase and/or maximize the myopia control efficacy, the refractive power or relatively more positive power of the myopia control elements may be arranged such that they gradually increase in relative positive power compared to 1402 b from an upper portion of the ophthalmic lens to a lower portion of the ophthalmic lens (relative positive power of 1404 c>1404 b>1404 a) as illustrated in FIG. 14A. Such an arrangement may reduce the risk of visual disturbances for far viewing as the relatively more positive power of the myopia control elements is less for far viewing positions. In the ophthalmic lenses of FIGS. 14B and 14C used in conjunction with higher concentrations of atropine, the sizes of one of the first viewing regions 1412 a in FIG. 14B and 1422 a in FIG. 14C are larger than 1402 a of the lens 1401 drawn in FIG. 14A. Additionally, the strength or relatively more positive power of myopia control elements of the ophthalmic lenses 1411 and 1421 may be higher than the corresponding myopia control elements of ophthalmic lens 1401.

FIG. 15 is a schematic of two ophthalmic lenses (1501 and 1511) used in conjunction with muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) to slow myopia progression whilst minimizing, reducing and/or eliminating vision disturbances. In FIG. 15A, the dimensions of one of the first viewing region 1502 a of lens 1501 is sized based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions 1502 a, 1512 a may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter. Furthermore, the relatively more positive power in the second viewing region (1503) is based, at least in part, on the concentration of the Atropine in use. As illustrated, the myopia control elements (1504) are present across the entire lens surface excluding one of the first viewing regions 1502 a. The arrangement of the myopia control elements across one or more of the first viewing regions and one or more of the second viewing regions may be similar across lens 1511. In addition to the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to be used in conjunction with the ophthalmic lens, the fill ratio of the myopia control elements across the lens may be determined based on the progression of myopia. A higher fill ratio may aid in conjunction with muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to slow myopia whereas a lower fill ratio may result in lesser visual disturbance. For example, in FIG. 15A, the fill ratio of the myopia control elements across the ophthalmic lens 1501 is >40% (as illustrated in section 1508 a) in eyes with a faster than anticipated rate of axial elongation. In eyes where the myopia progression is slower than expected, the fill ratio of the myopia control elements in the lens of 1501 in FIG. 15B may be reduced to <40% (as illustrated in section 1518 a). Determination of the rate of progression in order to select the ophthalmic lens to be used in conjunction with the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) may also be made based on history of the individual including age, axial length of the eye, axial length/corneal curvature of the eye, parental myopia, previous progression history and time spent on outdoor and indoor activities.

The ophthalmic lenses described herein can be formed by numerous methods. The ophthalmic lenses or the ophthalmic lens designs described herein may be manufactured using known methods for production of spectacles and contact lenses. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lens described herein may be manufactured using one or more techniques and/or processes involving molding, lathing, lens surfacing, for example, freeform manufacturing, printing, stamping, coating, encapsulation, additive procedures, subtractive procedures, lasering, etching, photolithography, physical alteration, or a combination of one or more processes or techniques. In some embodiments, the front surface of the ophthalmic lens may be manufactured by molding or casting techniques incorporating one or more myopia control elements, one or more first viewing regions and/or one or more second viewing regions resulting in a semi-finished blank or lens meaning semi-finished blank or lens may require one or more additional processing steps to complete the final lens design to be worn by the individual. For example, one additional processing step may include surfacing and/or polishing the back surface to incorporate the distance refractive error of the eye and may be manufactured using freeform manufacturing processes, lathing or molding or other techniques. In some embodiments, the one or more myopia control elements or the second viewing region may be produced as a separate step to the manufacturing of the lens e.g., by an additive process (such as a 3D printing, inkjet printing or a lens coating or a film encapsulation or a polymer layer step) or a subtractive process (laser) or by altering the physical properties of the lens material such surface finish, refractive index, surface shape or curvature in whole or in part (laser or stamping or compression).

In some embodiments, a set or series or kit of ophthalmic lenses or ophthalmic lens designs for use in conjunction with atropine or atropine related compounds may be provided. The ophthalmic lenses in the series or set or kit may comprise fully finished or semi-finished blanks or lens surface manufacturing files for lens surfacing machines, for example, surface generators or CNC machines. The set or series or kit may consist of a plurality of ophthalmic lenses and/or lens designs, the ophthalmic lenses or lens designs comprising a feature configured, at least in part, based on the concentration of muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds). FIG. 16 illustrates a series of ophthalmic lenses or ophthalmic lens designs configured to be used based on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds). As illustrated, the lenses in the series include at least one first viewing region (1602 a, 1612 a, 1622 a) with at least one dimension (e.g., the size) of which may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds). As illustrated, the size of the first viewing region is smaller (1602 a) when used in conjunction with low concentrations of Atropine and is larger (1612 a and 1622 a) when used in conjunction with moderate and high concentrations of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions 1602 a, 1612 a and 1622 a may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter. Additionally, the lens may have at least one second viewing region (1603, 1613, 1623) that is placed about inferiorly to the first viewing region 1602 a, 1612 a and 1622 a respectively and has a dioptric power profile that is more positive relative to the dioptric power in the first viewing region to enable substantially normal vision for near distances. The dimensions, i.e. size of the second viewing region and/or the relatively more positive power of the second viewing region may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to be used in conjunction with the ophthalmic lens. In some embodiments, each of the lenses or designs in the series or kit of lenses may have a relatively more positive power in the second viewing region relative to first viewing region and may be categorized as having one of the one or more second viewing regions with a low, medium, and/or high add powers. The lens 1601 may have a low add power in the second viewing region 1603 and may be associated with a smaller increase in the size of the first viewing region 1602 a and may be used in conjunction with low concentrations of atropine (≤0.01% atropine). In some embodiments, the low add power in the second viewing region 1602 a may be ≤+1.00 D. The lens 16011 may have a moderate add power in the second viewing region 1613 and may be associated with a moderate increase in the size of the first viewing region 1612 a and may be used in conjunction with moderate concentrations of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) (e.g., >0.01 to 0.1% atropine). In some embodiments, the moderate add power in the second viewing region may range from ≥+1.00 D to ≤+2.00 D or ≥+1.00 D to ≤+2.50 D. The lens 1621 may have a high add power in the second viewing region 1623 and may be associated with a large increase in the size of the first viewing region 1622 a and may be used in conjunction with high concentrations of muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) (e.g., >0.10% atropine). In some embodiments, the high add power in the second viewing region may be ≥+1.50 D to ≤+3.50 D. Additionally, each of the lenses 1601, 1611 and 1621 in the series or kit or set of lenses or lens designs may have one or more myopia control elements (1604 a, 1614 a and 1624 a) across the one or more viewing regions of the lenses or across the entire area of each of the lenses and may be configured based on the concentration of Atropine or Atropine based compounds. In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 16C the lens 1621 may be designed for a higher concentration of atropine and may have myopia control elements 1624 a in a second viewing region 1623 that may be different (e.g., smaller) and have a lower fill factor than the myopia control elements in a first viewing region 1622 b.

FIG. 17 illustrates another set of ophthalmic lenses or ophthalmic lens designs configured to be used based on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds). As illustrated in FIGS. 17A to 17C, the lenses in the series include at least one or more first viewing regions (1702 a to 1751 a respectively) with at least one dimension (e.g., the size) of which may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds). As illustrated, the size of one of the first viewing region 1702 a is smaller when used in conjunction with low concentrations of Atropine and is larger (1711 a and 1721 a) when used in conjunction with moderate and high concentrations of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound). In some embodiments, at least one of the first viewing regions 1702 a, 1711 a and 1721 a may incorporate a power profile to control, reduce and/or minimize one or more of higher order aberrations resulting from an increase in the pupillary diameter. Additionally, the lens may have at least one second viewing region (1703 in lens 1701) that is placed about inferiorly to a first viewing region 1702 a and has a dioptric power profile that is more positive relative to the dioptric power in the first viewing region to enable substantially normal vision for near distances. The dimensions, i.e., size of the second viewing region and/or the relatively more positive power may be selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to be used in conjunction with the ophthalmic lens. In some embodiments, the lenses in the series or kit of lenses may have a relatively more positive power in the second viewing region relative to a first viewing region and may be categorized as having a low or a medium or a high add power. A low add power in the second viewing region 1703 may be associated with a smaller increase in the size of the first viewing region and may be used in conjunction with low concentrations of atropine (≤0.01% atropine). A moderate add power in the second viewing region 1713 may be associated with a moderate increase in the size of the first viewing region and may be used in conjunction with moderate concentrations of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) (e.g., >0.01 to 0.1% atropine). A high add power in the second viewing region 1723 may be associated with a large increase in the size of the first viewing region and may be used in conjunction with high concentrations of muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) (e.g., >0.1% atropine). Additionally, in some embodiments, the strength or magnitude of the one or more myopia control elements (1704 to 1754) may be configured based on the concentration of Atropine or Atropine based compounds. In some embodiments, the strength or magnitude of one or more of the myopia control elements (1704) may be high when used in conjunction with low concentration of atropine to enhance the slowing of myopia. In some embodiments, the myopia control elements (1714 and 1724) may be of relatively lower strength or magnitude compared to 1704 when used in conjunction with higher concentrations of atropine.

In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIGS. 18A to 18C for the set of ophthalmic lenses or ophthalmic lens designs configured to be used based on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds), the area occupied by the one or more of the myopia control elements may be high (1834) when used in conjunction with low concentration atropine to enhance the stimulus to the eye to slow or reduce the progression of myopia. In some embodiments, the area occupied by the one or more of the myopia control elements be may low (1844 and 1854) when used in conjunction with moderate to high concentration atropine to reduce visual disturbances to the eye of the user.

In some embodiments, the ophthalmic lenses or lens series may be further tailored to comprise a photochromic filter or a light absorbing filter or a light absorbing element or a photo mask or a phase shift mask to minimize or reduce the visual disturbances. In some embodiments, the density or gradation or location across the lens of the photochromic filter or a light absorbing filter may be selected based upon the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) in use. In some embodiments, the density or gradation of light filtering elements may be lower or cover a lesser area of the lens for lower concentrations of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds) and may be higher or greater for higher concentrations of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compounds). In some embodiments, the density or light filtering elements or area coverage may be selected based on the size of the first viewing region and/or the relatively more positive power of the second viewing region. For example, in some embodiments, the density of the light filtering or photochromic filter may be about 25% or lower for small increase in the size of the first viewing region and/or relative positive power of ≤+1.00 D. In some embodiments, the density of the light filtering or photochromic filter may be about 25% to 50% for moderate increase in the size of the first viewing region and/or relatively more positive power of +1.00 to +2.00 D and may be about >50% for larger increases in the size of the first viewing region and/or relative positive power of >+2.00 D.

One aspect of embodiments described herein provides a method of managing progression of myopia in an eye and includes; a) detection or identification of myopia and/or progression of myopia; b) determining the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent to be prescribed for use to slow, retard or control the progression of myopia and c) selecting one of the ophthalmic lenses from a series or a kit or a plurality of ophthalmic lenses based on the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent in use, wherein the ophthalmic lens comprises a base lens with a front and back surface and one or more myopia control elements, one or more first viewing regions with a first power profile selected to substantially correct for a distance refractive error of the eye, wherein the one or more features of at least one of the first viewing regions, such as the size is selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent and designed to minimize or reduce visual disturbances for the eye.

Another aspect of embodiments described herein provides a method of managing progression of myopia in an eye and includes; a) detection or identification of myopia and/or progression of myopia; b) determining the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent to be prescribed for use to slow, retard or control the progression of myopia and c) selecting one of the ophthalmic lenses from a series or a kit or a plurality of ophthalmic lenses based on the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent in use, wherein the ophthalmic lens comprises a base lens with a front and back surface, and one or more myopia control elements, and one or more first viewing regions with a first power profile selected to substantially correct for a distance refractive error of the eye, and one or more second viewing regions with a power profile that is relatively positive compared to the one or more first viewing regions, and wherein the one or more features of at least one of the first viewing regions, such as the size is selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent and designed to minimize or reduce visual disturbances for the eye and, wherein at least one or more features of the second viewing region such as the size and the relatively more positive power of the second viewing regions is selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent to compensate for the accommodative changes of the eye attributable to the pharmaceutical agent.

FIG. 19A is an illustration of a spectacle lens 1901 used in conjunction with a muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to slow myopia progression whilst minimizing, reducing and/or eliminating vision disturbances. The power profile of the first viewing regions 1902 a and 1902 b are configured to correct the distance refractive error. In FIG. 19A the dimensions of at least one of the first viewing regions 1902 a and/or at least one of the second viewing regions 1903 are sized based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. Additionally, the dioptric power of the second viewing region 1903 is relatively more positive compared to the first viewing regions 1902 a and 1902 b to reduce and/or minimize visual disturbances when the individual is looking at near distances and is based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. Furthermore, the myopia control elements 1904 and 1905 are a plurality of refractive lenslets that are similarly sized and are distributed across the lens surface including in one of the first viewing regions 1902 b and the second viewing region 1903. But there are no myopia control elements located in the centrally positioned first viewing region 1902 a.

FIG. 19B is an illustration of a spectacle lens 1911 used in conjunction with a muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) to slow myopia progression whilst minimizing, reducing and/or eliminating vision disturbances. The lens 1911 has 3 first viewing regions 1912 a, 1912 b and 1912 c configured with a power profile to correct the distance refractive error and the dimensions of at least one of the first viewing regions are sized based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. Unlike FIG. 19A, the lens 1911 does not include a second viewing region that has a different power profile to the at least one of the first viewing regions. The myopia control elements 1914 and 1915 are similarly sized and are distributed across the lens surface including the first viewing regions 1912 b and 1912 c. But there are no myopia control elements positioned in the first (central located) viewing region 1912 a. The power profile of the myopia control elements 1914 and 1915 are also selected based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. The myopia control elements 1915 in shaded region 1912 c have a relatively more positive power profile compared to the myopia control elements 1914 in region 1912 b to reduce and/or minimize the stronger myopia progression stimuli arising when the individual is looking at near distances and is based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use.

FIG. 19C provides a list of example ophthalmic lenses and their lens power profile parameters selected for 5 progressing myopes prescribed 0.05% Atropine to control their myopia and selected based at least, in part, on the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent in use to reduce and/or minimize visual disturbances and/or accommodative changes. Each of the 5 myopes using the an example ophthalmic lens shown in FIG. 19C have an identical power profile requirement in each eye and a similar myopia progression history in each eye and are therefore fitted with ophthalmic lenses of identical parameters in each eye. However, in some other examples, the at least one or more parameters of the ophthalmic lenses selected based at least in part the concentration of the pharmaceutical agent in use to, for example, reduce and/or minimize visual disturbances or accommodative changes may not be equal in each eye or may be powered and/or positioned differently between eyes. Example lenses 1 to 4 in FIG. 19C relate to the ophthalmic lens configuration 1901 illustrated in FIG. 19A and includes at least one second viewing region relatively more positive in power profile compared to at least one of the first viewing regions 1902 a and 1902 b to reduce and/or minimize visual disturbances when the individual is looking at near distances and is based, at least in part, on the concentration of the muscarinic receptor antagonist (e.g., Atropine or Atropine related compound) in use. Examples lens 5 relates to the ophthalmic lens configuration 1911 illustrated in FIG. 19B and may not contain a second viewing region. All example lenses provide a power profile in at least one of the first viewing regions to correct the spherical refractive error of the myope except for the lens of example 4 which provides a sphero-cylindrical refractive error correction. Example lenses 1, 2, 4 and 5 also incorporate myopia control elements having a power profile that provide a relatively more positive power than the first power profile of the at least one first viewing region and, as such, provide a myopic defocus, i.e. a focus in front of the retinal plane. The lens of example 3 incorporates myopia control elements having a power profile that are relatively more negative power (−3.00 D) than the at least one first power profile of at least one of the first viewing regions and, as such, provide a hyperopic defocus, i.e. a focus behind the retinal plane. The resultant net power profile of the relatively more negative (−3.00 D) myopia control elements 1914 than a first power profile of a first viewing region 1912 b is −8.00 D (−5.00 D base power profile to correct for the distance refractive error plus −3.00 D power profile of the hyperopic defocus lenslet 1914). However, in the second viewing region 1903 the resultant net power profile of the relatively more negative (−3.00 D) myopia control element 1905 than the first power profile is −6.00 D (−5.00 D base power profile to correct for the distance refractive error plus +2.00 D additional power included in a second viewing region 1903 plus −3.00 D power profile of the hyperopic defocus lenslets 1815). In this lens of example 5 based on the configuration of lens 1911 illustrated in FIG. 19B and the lens parameters of example 5 shown in FIG. 19C, the power profile of the first viewing regions 1912 a-c provided to correct the distance refractive error of the progressing myope is −2.00 D. The myopia control elements 1914 distributed across a first viewing region 1912 b may have a lesser strength e.g., power profile (+1.50 D) in comparison to the myopia control elements 1915 (+3.50 D) distributed across one of the first viewing (shaded) regions 1912 c to ensure that adequate myopia control may be provided during near tasks, as excessive near tasks are considered to exacerbate myopia.
